Most players adhere to the rules set within a poker tournament, but in some rare instances, players do disrupt the games by not following rules or acting inappropriately. That's when these Poker Penalty Cards come in handy. Penalties are applied by the tournament director or the individual assigned to manage the game. Most penalties take the form of forcing an offending player to sit out of the tournament for a certain amount of time or number of rounds.

The Poker Penalty Cards comes in 2 sets and in multiple colors. One set assigns penalties in increments of 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes and 40 minutes. The other set assign penalties by the number of rounds (ie. an entire circuit of the blinds), 1 round, 2 rounds, 3 rounds, and 4 rounds.
